Planting after Granting

HI,I've looking to find out if I have to plant newly grafted trees in a nursery setting. After letting them harden off I'd like to plant them in a protected orchard that is small enough that I can pay extra attention to them but they would be in their final resting place. Is this ok or am I missing something??Thanks,adam

You can plant them in their permanent location or grow them out for a year in a protected nursery setting. I prefer to grow them out for a year in a protected area so that voles and deer do not damage or kill them. But if you plant them out and are able to keep them well cared for at least the first 2-3 years, there is no reason they can't be put in their permanent spots right away.
